You may choose Open Shutters for their individual attributes compared to other window furnishings. Most people once they've lived with Open Shutters express a more broad based satisfaction - a wholistic feeling of comfort that comes with the unique combination of visual appeal and ambience, light control, temperature and sound insulation. Enjoy all this in a long lasting, low maintenance shutter. Consider the lifestyle benefits for your home...
Allergic to dust? A clear advantage of Open Shutters.
Open Shutters are specially treated so they resist attracting dust (anti static), which helps allergy and asthma sufferers.
Minimise toxins and chemicals in your home with shutters.
Open Shutters timber ranges are made from solid Western Red Cedar, so there is no degassing from man made mdf or glue based "wood" composites. All paints are free of lead and isocyanates.
Window shutters have great insulation properties.
Because we use the right materials and take extra care with the fit, Open Shutters are also one of the best window insulators available. The Western Red Cedar we use, which is farmed sustainably, has the best insulation qualities of any wood. In fact, 1cm of Cedar is equal to 4cm of brick. Our tests have shown a 47% reduction in heat transfer. Research has also shown the tighter the air gap between the shutter and window the better the insulation effect; another benefit of Open's made-to-measure handcrafted shutters and individually made joinery for a snugger fit.
The height of design, low maintenance shutters.
Precision-made Open Shutters are also low maintenance, no need to wash curtains, replace blind cords, or struggle with Venetians. Open Shutters add style, beauty and value to a home whether the decor is modern or traditional. Open Shutters installers are well trained and work reliably and neatly. Finally, Open Shutters are here in Australia to support each installation, anywhere in the country.
No compromise home decorating.
Blinds, shades, venetians, curtains, verticals, mass produced plantation shutters and traditional window furnishings all have limitations when looking at transforming your house into a personal home. Open Shutters can help you achieve just what you're after, without compromise.
Each Open Shutter is individually crafted in Australia for each opening. This means every individual panel you order will be designed to the classic proportions best for your unique space. Open Shutters offers an extensive choice in shutter styles and the flexibility of a comprehensive range; interior and exterior, wet or high traffic areas, special shapes from circles to bay windows, blade profiles and widths, natural finishes to colour matching.
